Wanted to know, If you parked your boat in a parking lot, with 20-30 boats, the same year, manufacturer, model, etc.

Question #1: What makes your boat, different and stand out?

Question #2: Besides putting out the $3000.00 for custom boat wraps, anyone know of sign/logo company, that would make (single/ es), custom sticker type to go over factory Logo/labels. To, make your NEW, Nitro Z-9, stand out from like 20-30 other NEW, Z-9's. 

I hope to hear from everyone on this one !

KEEP FLIPPING & PITCHING, BABY !!!!!!

Mine would stand out because it has a 130 on it where most were ordered with either a 90 or 115. Mine is also in better shape than most boats it's age.

As for your wanting to stand out without a wrap, any good custom graphics place should be able to create what you want. It might not be cheap though.

Have a graphics place make you stickers that say Z 10 and put them over the Z 9s that are now on the boat.  That should leave other fishermen scratching their heads.  Shouldn't be an expensive modification.

Or have them make a big sticker that says "Mine not yours"

It don't have much to brag about sitting on the trailer, but makes a hellava statement when it leaves the NO WAKE area when I have one of my fun motors on it.

Never have been into the bling, if it's nice and purrty, you don't want to put in some of the place you need to be.  Like these people with these jacked up, fancy 4WD trucks and won't drive it off road or though the bushes because it might get dirty or scratched.  Me, I drive a 4WD because I can use it to go through places I can't or wouldn't walk.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA

 Just to clarify/Qualify, Not talking about Bling or Bragging !!!!!

 FYI, I don't own, Nitro Z-9 or Z-21, or anything close.. My rig- 12ft. 1975 Aluminum craft (yard sale $100.00) with deck I made from plywood, on front, to mount plastic W-Mart seat, with 30 Thrust MK, picked up at pawn shop for $25.00, curtain rod rigged with plant hanger, as extension to trolling motor handle, so I don't have to move, while I'm fishing.

Watched video, on some tournament somewhere, that had like, 100's of Bass Boats, You could walk from shore to shore, just on all the boats.

What I was thinking, I'm getting older, and we have all seen that,old dude, trying to find his car in W-Mart parking lot. Thank god for beeping remotes.

Graphics: Watched Cancer erase, My mother and my wife's mother. My mother-in-law, called her walker, "GERTIE", A walker, isn't referring the Tennessee Walker, a breed of hound dog. It's aluminum with wheels, old folks just hold onto top of it and lean into it, to keep their balance, and allows them to move around. She died One year ago, at 85 years old.

My desire was, to start a conversation and  to check out what and how you guys customized your rigs.I wanted to name my boat "Gertie", because I'm an amputee, and my boat helps me fish. ( Like above mentioned walker). OUT OF RESPECT, maybe a step up from a bumper sticker....

Hell, My truck is 2010 Silverado 1500 WT, for those in here that, don't know what that means, WORK TRUCK !

Didn't mean to hit a nerve !!!!! Ya, don't have to have a full set of teeth to eat a steak, eaver........

Thanks for allowing me to straighten that out, WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION

I guess I was the one that struck a nerve, wasn't trying to though. 

If you really want to make a statement that makes your boat stand out and be different when sitting in that line of 100 shiny, new, bass boats, be able to put a big sticker on your not so shiny, new boat saying "IT'S PAID FOR!"

The color of mine sets it apart from the others. Don't see many orange bass boats out there.

If the color doesn't give it away, this fool lounging around on the back deck will (the dog, not my son, yet anyways).

I would be able to pick mine out due to all the scratches.  I use my boat as the tool it is meant to be so I will take it into any space in brush that it will fit through.

I would also be able to pick it out based on the 200 HP Evinrude Ficht motor on the back.  Particular model years of the Ficht had major issues.  From what I've read, some literally exploded and due to the bad image you don't see too many people running them.  Mine had the recall work performed on it before I bought it and has been a very good motor in the 8 years I have owned it.

If I parked my boat in a lot full of identical boats, it's distinguishing identifiers is that it would look 10 years newer than the rest of them, as it was made new in '05, finally purchased in '08, run for about 3 hours...then stored in a garage until 2014.

Other than that, nothing special.  I want to stay "under the radar" most of the time.  Bright shiny things and flashy graphics attract attention I don't want.
